ATI RV770 engineering samples ready

Posted on January 17, 2008 - 20:10 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

FUD Zilla writes AMD has finished the first working engineering samples of the RV770 GPU. This chip will be released in the second quarter and will be the base of the R700 dual-chip design.

The chip should end up significantly faster than the current RV670 and it will be DirectX 10.1 capable. We don’t know how many shader units or transistors does this one have but we will work on it.

RV770 will replace the RV670 based Radeon 38x0 generation and bring this market to the next level, but give it at least three to four months more.
